Stuff about SQL
Hi people! Here’s another of those “solutions to annoying problems”. This time, we’re talking about SQL. I expect anyone who has done any significant amount of programming on web applications will have had to use this, in order to maintain a database for the application on the server side. In this post, I’ll describe a [...]

Bashrc tricks
rm -rf * . Voilla !!! And your project is gone. No way to recover your data. Life may give you second chance but sometimes Linux don’t. Add following lines to your .bashrc file to have a pop up confirming the deletion of the file. function rm (){ OUT=`zenity –question –title “Remove” –text “Are you [...]
3Linux –> Windows (C/C++ programming)
Are you an experienced Linux programmer but have barely written any significant code for Microsoft Windows OS? If you ever go for windows programming (no terminal, no gcc/g++… ), this post might come to your rescue. I got the motivation to write it when I was busy writing codes for my Google soc project. An [...]

Stuff about git
Hi people, Since I’ve been spending some time with git, I’ve also had to bang my head against some of its more non-intuitive aspects, and so I thought I’d post this to help you guys avoid having to do this yourself… Committing is a bit of a tricky job. When I was new, I used [...]

Digital Filter, Analog to Digital Converter and Digital to Analog Converter.
We had to take a project in our Digital Hardware Design lab and we took “Digital Filter”. If you’re reading this an year from now, probably you’ve done the same. As usual, we started off late: 4 days before the submission deadline. 4 days for a project is quite enough usually, though people usually end [...]
0Volume Control
Hi people. I thought I’d share with you guys another of those “solutions to annoying Linux problems.” This one came up, for me, in the General Computing Laboratory for the CSE department in my college- a problem due to which the desktops there (recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) have no volume control! This can [...]

Odd stuff.
Did you know that, if you open a directory in the terminal (at least in gnome-terminal, which I use), then open the directory using a file browser (at least with Nautilus, which I use), and then perform an en masse file deletion, the terminal will still show those files as being present when you use [...]
8Stuff about GHDL
Hello, people. I didn’t really plan on making my first ever blog post so prosaic, but well, I needed to, so here goes. I guess this blog is relevant to those who like to program in VHDL and use Linux for compiling and running their code. I have heard of some who actually install Xilinx [...]

Fork Bomb – :(){ :|:& };:
Before realizing what a fork bomb is, let us do a small experiment. Open your terminal (if you have a computer with linux installed on it) and type the following : (){ : |:& };: and press enter. For those who care to read further, fork bomb is an innocent bomb that keeps on replicating [...]

Pause and Continue processes – Linux
What to do if your computer hangs and you have linux as the operating system. When I was first thinking of installing linux, somebody told me Linux don’t hang. I was ecstatic. But soon I realized the inappropriateness of this when my Ubuntu 10.10 started hanging at regular periods. So, finally I found a small workaround [...]
